Application filed July 11, 1902. Serial No. 115,166. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, JOHN CLARENCE GAR- VEY, a citizen of the United States, residing, at Hartwell, in the county of Hamilton and.

tion; Fig. 2, a vertical section of the same;

Fig. 3, an end view of the hose clamp and handle; Fig. 4, a horizontal section of a modified form of application of my invention; Fig 5, a Vertical section of the same; Fig. 6, an

.enlarged section on line6 6 of Fig. 5, and

Fig. 7 a vertical section showing a different form of mounting for the hose clamp and handle.

Reference-letter A denotes a standard; B, a hose-reel; C, a hose-clamp, and D a section of hose.

The standard A is preferably in the form of a tripod, having hinged legs secured in tripod form by hooks a. A handle a may be provided for convenience in carrying.

On top of standard A is pivoted a hose-reel B, havin g hinged reel-arms b and vertical reelbars I). The pivot for reel B consists of a rod b secured in. standard A by'means of set-screw a The rod 17 passes up through the bottom. plate b of reel B and is set into 'swing vertically and horizontally and proa socket in the top plate b. the bottom plate b to rod 6 7 On top of reel B is mounted a standard a, in which is pivoted the hose-clamp C. The hose-clamp consists of a body portion 0, having at its ends upturned flanges c notched to receive the hose. To form the clamping member, side pieces 0 are hinged to the body portion, notched to cooperate with the notches in-flanges c to hold the. hose and provided with hooks c engaging eyes 0 A handle 0 A pin 1) looks;

connects side pieces 0 and furnishes a means for adjusting the direction of the stream or carrying the apparatus. A spring 0 renders the clamp capable of clamping different sizes of hose. Thehinged tripod-legs a and the hinged reel-arms b render the holder readily collapsible and easily carried.

It will be noted that the pivoted mounting of clamp C and reel B permits the adjustment of hose-nozzle d to direct the stream in any desired direction and at any angle of elevation, while the reel B furnishes a convenient means for carrying the hose.

preferred form of application of my inven- -tion, this is obviously capable of many variations without departing from its spirit. I

therefore do not wish to be. limited to the exact construction shown and described; but

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- 1 1. In a hose-holder, the combination of standard A; reel B, and clamp C pivoted to swing vertically and horizontally and provided with hinged handle 0 and spring 0 substantially as'specified.

2. In a hose-holder, the combination of standard A having hinged legs a; reel B having hinged arms I); and clamp C pivoted to swing vertically and horizontally and pro vided with hinged handle 0 and spring 0 substantially as specified.

3. In a hose-holder, clamp C pivoted to vided with hinged handle 0 and spring 0 substantially as specified.

4. In a hose-holder, clamp C pivoted to Swing vertically and horizontally, and provided with hinged handle 0 adapted to serve as a means for carrying-the holder, and for operating clamp c, substantiallyas specified.
